-
but whose delight is in the law of the Lord, and who meditates on his law day and night.
-
The law of the Lord is perfect, refreshing the soul. The statutes of the Lord are trustworthy, making wise the simple.
-
The law of their God is in their hearts; their feet do not slip.
-
But to the wicked person, God says: “What right have you to recite my laws or take my covenant on your lips?
-
He decreed statutes for Jacob and established the law in Israel, which he commanded our ancestors to teach their children,
-
they did not keep God’s covenant and refused to live by his law.
-
Blessed is the one you discipline, Lord, the one you teach from your law;
-
that they might keep his precepts and observe his laws. Praise the Lord.

Psalm 119
א Aleph
Blessed are those whose ways are blameless, who walk according to the law of the Lord.
-
With my lips I recount all the laws that come from your mouth.
-
I have chosen the way of faithfulness; I have set my heart on your laws.
-
Take away the disgrace I dread, for your laws are good.
-
The arrogant mock me unmercifully, but I do not turn from your law.
-
I remember, Lord, your ancient laws, and I find comfort in them.
-
Indignation grips me because of the wicked, who have forsaken your law.
-
In the night, Lord, I remember your name, that I may keep your law.
-
Though the wicked bind me with ropes, I will not forget your law.
-
Their hearts are callous and unfeeling, but I delight in your law.
-
The law from your mouth is more precious to me than thousands of pieces of silver and gold.
-
The arrogant dig pits to trap me, contrary to your law.
-
Accept, Lord, the willing praise of my mouth, and teach me your laws.
-
Those who devise wicked schemes are near, but they are far from your law.
-
Great peace have those who love your law, and nothing can make them stumble.
-
He has done this for no other nation; they do not know his laws. Praise the Lord.
